Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Make the Brownie Batter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well combined. Mix in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
- Prepare the Pumpkin Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Mix until smooth.
- Layer the Mixtures: Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Spoon dollops of the pumpkin mixture over the brownie batter, then add the remaining brownie batter on top. Use a knife to swirl the mixtures together gently.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before cutting into squares. Serve as a delicious dessert.
